The sample email cover letter to follow can be modified to create your own email cover letter, by following the same format in the sample email cover letter below. 
  • An email cover letter is your sales pitch to the company you are applying to.  
  • An email cover letter is not a summary of your resume and it doesn't replace a resume.
  • The main objective of the email cover letter & resume is to get the employer interested in calling you for an interview.

 

  • Each email cover letter or job application letter should be tailored for the position and company you are applying to.
  • Check job application closing dates and always apply early. 
  • An email cover letter should be a brief and simple one page email.
  • Use Strong Action Verbs & phrases to describe yourself, your skills and your strengths.
  • You can prepare a general email cover letter, which must be edited for each specific job.
